Alright turns out my drivers side motor was bad, i was able to get them up by hooking them to my drill battery, but im still having issues with the switches, so my question is, if the driver side switches took a **** would it cause the passenger side to stop working as well? what could be the problem, everything seems to be hooked up properly and ive already replaced the relay next to the solenoid, but as far as that goes im at a loss, ive read that damn wiring diagram till my eyes bled, and dont know what to do

Did both switches quit working at the same time? If so power to the switch may be the problem. I would highly doubt both switches internally went out simultaneously, but still possible

When the drivers window quit working were you able to use the switches to roll up the passenger side without the drill battery?

check fuse #14 if you havent already

Yes it's possible. The passenger side switch goes throuigh the driver's side switch. If you lost the ground path on the driver's side switch, the passenger side switch would not work.
